CSVLint.dll problem during setup

Fabio Dalla Villa

Hi
I cannot use NotePad++ any more because of this error:
“Loading CreateLexec function failed.
CSVLint.dll is not compatible with the current version of Notepadd++.
Do you wont to remove this plug in …?”

no metter if I click Yes or No … Notepad++ don’t start any more.

I tried to cancel e reinstall the app, even a prior release, but … no way.

(Win 10)

I can confirm this. It just happened to me, doing the ?->Update Notpad++ menu selection. I selected Yes to have it remove it and it shutdown and never came back up. Doing it by double clicking the NPP icon on the desktop continues to bring up this same error box. Will post this here and the 8.4.2. release issues.

Clicking yes apparently is not removing the plugin to allow the program to continue loading.

@fabio-dalla-villa ,
Here’s the fix:
Okay, so I went in and manually had to remove the CSVLint folder from the C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins folder and then double clicked the desktop icon and it came up.

That will fix the problem of not starting after asking it to remove it, but I’ll report it as a bug.
